Using clang compiler
==========================
clang++ compiler is **highly recommended** for anyone developing in C++ since :
**clang/llvm** is one of the very best C++ compilers, with gcc.
It is open source, on linux and OS X (where it is now the standard compiler provided by Apple).
* It has very nice and useful error messages, much nicer than intel or gcc.
* It implements most of the new C++11 standard.
*clang* compiler is **highly recommended** for anyone developing in C++ since :
clang/llvm is now the standard compiler on OS X, but it is open source
and works very well on linux too.
* It is standard compliant (C++11).
* It has very nice and useful error messages, much nicer than intel or gcc (even thought gcc is catching up...).
It really makes little sense to develop with e.g. gcc 4.6 today, specially with a library like TRIQS,
which uses a lot of metaprogramming.
Version
---------
Note however that for *production* compilations, gcc, specially recent versions, still produces in general
a slighly more optimal code for TRIQS applications, also the difference is small.
* TRIQS compiles on clang, version 3.0 and later.
It is highly recommended to use the latest stable on linux (3.3), and the default compiler on Os X (Mountain lion).
* Recommended version is 3.1 (latest stable).

.. _install_without_boost:
Installation with your own version of boost [-DBOOST_INSTALL_DIR=...]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you have a sufficiently recent version of boost already installed in your system you may
link TRIQS with it instead of compiling a new version of boost from sources.
In this case, the cmake instruction is ::
cmake path_to_TRIQS_source_directory -DBOOST_INSTALL_DIR=root_path_to_Boost_installation ....
The cmake option `DBOOST_INSTALL_DIR` is the path to the **boost** libraries.
The default value is :
* BOOST_INSTALL_DIR : /usr
So if boost is at the right place, you can just say::
cmake path_to_TRIQS_source_directory
**Obviously, you should not specify `DBOOST_SOURCE_DIR` in this case!**
.. _static_dyn :
Static versus dynamic linking [-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TRIQS can be compiled in two different ways:
* **dynamic linking** [default] :
This is the standard python procedure and the default choice.
All the C++ codes are compiled in shared libraries and loaded dynamically at runtime by the python interpreter.
With this technique however, you have to properly set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to the TRIQS installation directory in order
for python to be able to find the module. To avoid errors, TRIQS provides a
tiny script :file:`path_to_TRIQS_install_directory/bin/pytriqs` that sets up this variable for you and launch the python interpreter.
* **static linking** :
An alternative is to compile a new interpreter statically.
Here the C++ modules are linked with libpython2.x.a to create a *new python interpreter* :file:`path_to_TRIQS_install_directory/bin/pytriqs`
that contains these modules as *built-in* modules.
Though it is not as standard and extensible as the dynamic linking, this technique has several advantages :
* It avoids opening dynamic libs, which simplifies code profiling for example.
* It may be more stable on some cluster machines (the boost.mpi modules in this case is also linked statically).
In any case, both the scripts and the way to call them remain the same in both cases::
pytriqs myscript.py
The choice is made with the cmake option ::
-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF/ON

C++ compilers
-----------------
TRIQS is written in C++, i.e. in the **C++11** standard as defined by the ISO.
A recent compiler is therefore mandatory.
There are 3 categories of C++ compilers.
* Standard compliant C++ compilers (recommended and supported).
* :ref:`clang 3.3<install_clang>` and higher.
* g++ 4.8.1 and higher
* Obsolete compilers.
TRIQS compiles on them, but they lack full C++11 support.
Therefore TRIQS may be slower, since some optimisations are disabled in the library
and they may not be supported in later release.
* g++ 4.6.4 to 4.8.0
* C++98 compilers.
Compilers implementing previous version of the C++ standard (c++98) do not work, and
will *never* be supported. This includes :
* g++ before 4.6
* Intel icc 12.0 and below.

.. _arr_view_memory:
View memory management
------------------------
View classes contains a reference counting system to the memory block they view
(like a std::shared_ptr, but more sophisticated to properly interface to Python numpy).
This guarantees that memory will not be dellocated before the destruction of the view.
The memory block will be dellocated when its array and all array_view
pointing to it or to a portion of it will be destroyed, and only at that moment.
Example::
array<int,2> *p = new array<int,2> (2,3); // create an array p
array_view<int,2> B = *p; // making a view
delete p; // p is gone...
B(0,0) = 314; cout<<B<<endl; // B (and the data) is still alive
.. warning::
TRIQS arrays, and in particular views are NOT thread-safe, contrary to std::shared_ptr.
This is a deliberate choice for optimisation.
Weak views [Advanced]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Unfortunately this can not be the end of the story, at least on current C++11 compilers.
It turns out that, in very performance sensitive loops, increasing this tiny
reference counter can break a lot of optimisations in almost all compilers, including the most
recent ones (gcc 4.8, clang 3.3).
It was therefore decided to introduce `weak views`.
* Weak views are completely similar to "normal" views, except that they do `not` increase the memory
reference counter.
* Normal views are be implicitely constructed from weak view (the reverse is also true),
As soon as you store the weak view into a normal view (e.g. array_view<T,N>)
the reference counting is again incremented, and the memory guarantee holds.
* Explicit construction of weak views is intentionally not documented here.
It is designed to be (almost) an implementation detail.
* The () operator returns a weak view `on a fully compliant C++11 compiler` (in particular, `rvalue reference for *this` must be implemented)
allowing therefore for better performance on such compiler, in some loops.
Older supported compiler will therefore generate code with lower performances.
* It is however necessary for the advanced user to know about this implementation detail,
because in some convolved cases, the memory guarantee may not hold.

* (2) **RHS** can be anything that models the :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray` concept
e.g. : array, array_view, matrix, matrix_view,
but also formal expression (See , e.g. A+B), or any custom object of your choice.
* **Behaviour**
`Effect` : all the elements viewed by the view are replaced
by the evaluation of RHS.
================= ======================================================================= ======================================================================================
Topic value class : array, matrix, vector view: array_view, matrix_view, vector_view
================= ======================================================================= ======================================================================================
RHS ... - RHS models the concept :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray`. - RHS models :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray`
[or less ? : RHS can be evaluated in the domain_type::value_type, no domain needed.].
Effect - array is resized to have a domain X.domain() - View's domain must match X's domain or behaviour is undefined.
- array is filled with the evaluation of X. - array is filled with the evaluation of X.
================= ======================================================================= ======================================================================================
.. warning::
* By evaluation of X, we mean :
In both cases, if needed, the container is resized.
- a copy if X is an array.
- computing the value if X is an expression.
Compound operators (+=, -=, * =, /=)
-------------------------------------------------
* **Syntax**
The syntax is natural ::
template<typename RHS> array & operator += (const RHS & X);
template<typename RHS> array & operator -= (const RHS & X);
template<typename RHS> array & operator *= (const Scalar & S);
template<typename RHS> array & operator /= (const Scalar & S);
* **What can be RHS ?**
Same as for = operator.
* **Behaviour**
Similar to for = operator, with obvious changes.
Hence **assignment invalidates all pointers and views to it**.
Move assign operator
---------------------------
**Synopsis** ::
array & operator=(array && X);
Standard move assign operator.
Move the data of X as data of `*this`.

.. _arr_view_assign:
Assignment to views
=========================
**Synopsis** :
template<typename RHS>
array_view & operator=(RHS const & X);
The `view classes` have a quite general assignment operator.
We will illustrate it on the `array_view` class, it is the same for `matrix` and `vector`.
* **RHS** can be :
* Anything that models the :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray` concept
e.g. : array, array_view, matrix, matrix_view,
but also formal expression (See , e.g. A+B), or any custom object of your choice.
`Effect` : all the elements viewed by the view are replaced
by the evaluation of RHS.
.. warning::
The shape of the view and of RHS must match exactly or behaviour is undefined.
If the debug macro, :ref:`TRIQS_ARRAYS_ENFORCE_BOUNDCHECK<arr_debug_macro>` is defined,
this condition is checked at runtime.
.. note::
We could lower this condition, since we don't need a domain here, just the evaluation
on the indices...
* A scalar.
`Effect` : all elements viewed by the view are set to this scalar.
NB : no move assign operator
---------------------------------------
Note that **there is no move assign operators for views**.
If RHS is an rvalue reference, the regular operator = is called, that
makes a copy of the data of RHS into the elements viewed by the view.
This behaviour is consistent with the fact that views are *not* regular types.
For example ::
array<double,2> A(3,3);
A(range(0,2), range(0,2)) = any_function_returning_a_new_2x2_array(....);
In this case, the expected behaviour is that the part of A views by view at l.h.s
is filled by the result of the function. There can not be any move semantics here.
As a result, std::swap algorithm does not work properly for view, hence it has
been explicitely *deleted*. A swap function (found by ADL) is provided instead.

View classes contains a reference counting system to the memory block they view
(like a std::shared_ptr, but more sophisticated to properly interface to Python numpy).
This guarantees that memory will not be dellocated before the destruction of the view.
The memory block will be dellocated when its array and all array_view
pointing to it or to a portion of it will be destroyed, and only at that moment.
Example::
array<int,2> *p = new array<int,2> (2,3); // create an array p
array_view<int,2> B = *p; // making a view
delete p; // p is gone...
B(0,0) = 314; cout<<B<<endl; // B (and the data) is still alive
.. warning::
TRIQS arrays, and in particular views are NOT thread-safe, contrary to std::shared_ptr.
This is a deliberate choice for optimisation.
Weak views [Advanced]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Unfortunately this can not be the end of the story, at least on current C++11 compilers.
It turns out that, in very performance sensitive loops, increasing this tiny
reference counter can break a lot of optimisations in almost all compilers, including the most
recent ones (gcc 4.8, clang 3.3).
It was therefore decided to introduce `weak views`.
* Weak views are completely similar to "normal" views, except that they do `not` increase the memory
reference counter.
* Normal views are be implicitely constructed from weak view (the reverse is also true),
As soon as you store the weak view into a normal view (e.g. array_view<T,N>)
the reference counting is again incremented, and the memory guarantee holds.
* Explicit construction of weak views is intentionally not documented here.
It is designed to be (almost) an implementation detail.
* The () operator returns a weak view `on a modern C++11 compiler`,
allowing therefore for better performance on such compiler, in some loops.
(in particular, `rvalue reference for *this` must be implemented).
* It is however necessary for the advanced user to know about this implementation detail,
because in some convolved cases, the memory guarantee may not hold.

Many algorithms can be written in form of map/fold.
The function *sum* which returns the sum of all the elements of the array is implemented approximately like this
(this function already exists in the lib, cf ???) ::
The function :ref:`arr_fnt_sum` which returns the sum of all the elements of the array is implemented as ::
template <class A>
typename A::value_type sum(A const & a) { return fold ( std::plus<typename A::value_type>()) (a); }

.. _Mapped:
Simple functions on arrays
==================================
The following functions are mapped on the array (using :ref:`map`):
`abs real imag pow cos sin tan cosh sinh tanh acos asin atan exp log sqrt floor`
meaning that e.g. if `A` is an array,
real(A) models :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray`, with the same size and returns the real part of the elements.
In other words, it applies the function term-by-term.
.. note::
These functions do NOT compute a new array in memory, they are lazy.
Example :
.. compileblock::
#include <triqs/arrays.hpp>
using triqs::arrays::matrix; using triqs::clef::placeholder;
int main(){
placeholder<0> i_; placeholder<1> j_;
matrix<double> A(2,2);
A(i_,j_) << i_ - j_ ;
std::cout << "A = "<<A << std::endl;
std::cout << "abs(A)= "<<matrix<double>(abs(A))<< std::endl;
}

make_immutable_array
-------------------------------
**Synopsis**::
template<typename Expr, int ... ph> auto make_immutable_array(Expr const &, clef::pair<ph,range> ...); (1)
template<typename Function> auto make_immutable_array(Function, range ...); (2)
* (1)
From a clef expression, and a range for each placeholder in the expression, build
a lazy object modelling :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray` concept, with the domain built from the ranges :
Parameters are :
* expr The lazy expression
* i_=R : `i_` is a placeholder, R a range. The `i_=R` produce a clef::pair of `i_` and R , which is the parameter.
* (2)
From a function object and a set of range, build
a lazy object modelling :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray` concept, with the domain built from the ranges :
**Example** :
.. compileblock::
#include <triqs/arrays.hpp>
#include <triqs/arrays/make_immutable_array.hpp>
using triqs::arrays::array; using triqs::arrays::range; using triqs::clef::placeholder;
int main() {
placeholder<0> i_; placeholder<1> j_;
auto a = make_immutable_array( 1.0/(2 + i_ + j_), i_= range(0,2), j_=range(0,2));
std::cout << "a = " << a << std::endl;
std::cout << "a = " << array<double,2>(a) << std::endl;
// or if you prefer using a lambda...
auto b = make_immutable_array ( [](int i, int j) { return i-j;}, range (0,2), range(0,2));
std::cout << "b = " << b << std::endl;
std::cout << "b = " << array<double,2>(b) << std::endl;

Simple array functions
==================================
The following functions work for any object modeling :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray` concept.
In this section, we present some simple functions already in the library.
It is however very easy to create new one using the usual functional constructions :ref:`map and fold<arr_map_fold>`.
Element-wise functions
---------------------------
The following functions are mapped on the array (using :ref:`map`):
`abs real imag pow cos sin tan cosh sinh tanh acos asin atan exp log sqrt floor`
meaning that e.g. if `A` is an array,
real(A) models :ref:`ImmutableCuboidArray`, with the same size and returns the real part of the elements.
In other words, it applies the function term-by-term.
.. note::
These functions do NOT compute a new array in memory, they are lazy.
sum
---------------
**Synopsis**::
template<ImmutableCuboidArray A> A::value_type sum (A const &);
template<ImmutableCuboidArray A> A::value_type prod (A const &);
Returns the sum (resp. product) of the all the elements of the array.
max_element, min_element
-------------------------------
**Synopsis**::
template<ImmutableCuboidArray A> A::value_type max_element (A const &);
template<ImmutableCuboidArray A> A::value_type min_element (A const &);
Returns the maximum/minimum element of the array (provided that value_type is an ordered type of course...).
Examples
-----------------
.. compileblock::
#include <triqs/arrays.hpp>
#include <triqs/arrays/algorithms.hpp>
using triqs::arrays::matrix; using triqs::clef::placeholder;
int main() {
// declare and init a matrix
placeholder<0> i_; placeholder<1> j_;
matrix<int> A (2,2); A(i_,j_) << i_ - j_ ;
std::cout << "A = " << A << std::endl;
std::cout << "abs(A)= " << matrix<double>(abs(A)) << std::endl;
std::cout << "sum(A) = " << sum(A) << std::endl;
std::cout << "max_element(A) = " << max_element(A) << std::endl;
std::cout << "min_element(A) = " << min_element(A) << std::endl;
std::cout << "min_element(abs(A)) = " << min_element(abs(A)) << std::endl;
